You start off with a tennis ball. Throw the ball continually back and forth until somebody drops the ball. When the ball is dropped you say "Down on one knee." If the same person drops the ball a second time, you say, "Down on two knees," then if the same person drops the ball again, you say, "Down on one elbow" and again you say, "down on two elbows" and then chin and then you're out...but remember, you have to stay in the position you're in until you catch the ball and can throw it back. (The same happens to the other person if THEY miss the ball.)

Groundhog Tunnel Game
Have the children line up in a row. To make the tunnel, have them stand close together with their legs apart. Have the last person in the row start the game.
Have the first groundhog crawl through the tunnel on his or her stomach. When the groundhog reaches the end of the tunnel, have him or her stand up & become a part of the tunnel while a new groundhog starts wiggling and giggling through.
